Lens - iPhone Dual Lenses (how to use them with a moment lens)

Attaching a lens

You can attach Moment Lenses over either the standard wide or tele lens on iPhones with dual or triple built-in lenses. The ultra-wide lens is too wide to be able to mount lenses over it, but still works great with our phone filter mount and 67mm filters.

Using our app, you can select which iPhone lens you want the camera to use. If your camera view is black, tap the iPhone Lens Selector button, located in the lower-right corner of the viewfinder, to switch to use the other lens.  If you have an iPhone with 3 cameras, you will be able to switch between all 3 lenses.

Another thing to note: you cannot use Apple's dual lens portrait mode with a Moment lens on since this mode uses both iPhone lenses to achieve this look. However, on the iPhone XR (which uses a single lens to achieve the portrait look) you can use a Moment Lens with portrait mode (in the native Camera app) and will get some pretty awesome results.
